100 Years Ago

(From the Nov. 12, 1926 issue of The Kansas City Jewish Chronicle)

The Kansas City Chapter of the Order of Aleph Zadik Aleph of the B’nai B’rith wishes to announce that a trophy will be awarded to the winner of the National A.Z.A. Contest for this district.

This contest, as has been previously announced, is open to any individual under the age of 21, and is therefore, not limited to A.Z.A. members. The subjects of the essays may be “Jews in the United States,” “Jews in Palestine,” or in fact, Jews in any land. Further information regarding this contest may be found on the bulletin board in the “Y” lobby.

The judges from the district will be announced next week. There is yet ample before the district elimination, so entrees may still be made.
